A seven-months-pregnant Connecticut woman was arrested for stabbing her own father to death because he allegedly called her black boyfriend a racial slur. She then gave birth to her baby, the day after the killing, two months early.
Jessica Keene, 24, [photo, left], stabbed her father Michael to death at his home in Windsor Locks, Connecticut, on November 17 after the pair got in an argument about her boyfriend Quahzier Bouie.
After attacking him, Jessica left her father’s body in the home.
She gave birth to her daughter prematurely the next day. It took days for Michael Keane’s body to be found.
The remains was discovered in a container that was hidden behind the couch after a relative went to the apartment and noticed a foul smell.
When police caught up with Jessica, she was in a hotel near the hospital where her premature baby was being cared for.
She claimed self-defense, admitted stabbing her father but said she only did so once in his leg despite telling police she knew he was dead.
Jessica, who has at least one other child, claimed her father came home in a drunken rage and that she was just defending herself.
She insisted that she did not move his body into the container and place it behind the couch, claiming that she physically would not have been able to move the dead weight,  because she was heavily pregnant at the time.

By the time police found Michael’s body, it was stuffed in a container and hidden behind the couch in his apartment.
Police caught up with Jessica in a hotel near where her baby was being cared for in hospital. She told them that she could not remember who gave her the knife but that her father came into the room, drunk, and called her boyfriend a racial slur.
The boyfriend, Quahzier Bouie, was questioned but released without charge.
